Variable

[Elorensun]

Hi ... I got a question ... can I insert a variable with a object

first this is my code
[code]<object type="application/x-shockwave-flash" width="400" height="220"
    wmode="transparent data="video/flvplayer.swf?file=video.flv"
  <param name="movie" value="video/flvplayer.swf?file=video.flv" />
  <param name="wmode" value="transparent" />
  </object>[/code]


I want to change video.flv by a variable that I put in my url link...

exemple ?vids=video

I tried a code I got from the forum but did not work... got any suggestion?

your_page.php?var=something

$variable = $_GET['var'];

$variable will now be "something"


You can then use <?=$variable?> to insert it into your html object or whatever.

yep. just to elaborate on that incase youre not sure, you need to put php into your code:


[code]
<?php
$vid = $_GET['vids'];
?>
<object type="application/x-shockwave-flash" width="400" height="220"
    wmode="transparent data="video/flvplayer.swf?file=<?php echo $vid; ?>"
  <param name="movie" value="video/flvplayer.swf?file=<?php echo $vid; ?>" />
  <param name="wmode" value="transparent" />
  </object>
[/code]
